Chapter 315: Mobilizing the Enemy
The cellar, which was originally pitch black, was now covered with green light, and Charles was looking intently at the screen of the telecommunications device in front of him, and the direction of Sycamore City was sending him the final order for this operation.
After reading the order, he had to sigh that there was a big gap between himself and the professionals.
At the beginning, he had a conversation with the Sycamore City Command.
Shenjing: In view of the fact that most of the enemy is moving westward, it is recommended to attack the enemy's logistics base or destroy the enemy's living forces.
Soy milk: It's only children who make choices, and I want them all.
Then George and his staff began a series of operations.
They first dispatched a special air service regiment deployed in Wutong City at night, and the special air service group conducted aerial reconnaissance of the enemy with the help of the cover of clouds through the power delta wing, and then, relying on their familiarity with the terrain, risked flying at low altitude and low speed, dropping a few empty cans and an empty potion bottle left over from their dinner, and even dropping a few frozen half-cans on time.
The effect was obvious, and the empty cans with a little bit of slime repellent convincing the enemy that there was indeed a team of elves operating inside the encirclement.
The next night, the operation of the special air service regiment went further.
Several members took the risk of landing in the encirclement, and then staged a real drama of trying to break through the encirclement.
That night, a patrol team of 10 fishmen was killed in less than two seconds by arrows from the darkness in the distance.
Just when they almost broke out of the first line of defense of the encirclement, the secret sentinel that had been lurking in the shadows risked death and sent a signal to discover the enemy.
After killing the outpost with an arrow, the members of the Special Air Service Regiment turned and returned to the darkness before the enemy forces arrived.
During the day on the third day, the search for the fish-people became more cautious.
On this day, traps that have not appeared before are endless. Especially near the place where the elves tried to break through last night, more than a dozen fishmen were killed or injured by those traps in just one morning.
Just after nightfall, a large group of elves stormed the outer defenses of the fishmen from the north. Although the elves pulled out the two strongholds of the fishmen, judging from the feedback on the blockade line, the elves in the encirclement failed to take this opportunity to jump out of the encirclement.
On the fourth day, more than two hours before sunrise, the western side of the encirclement was attacked.
The nine elves silently eliminated the patrol and outpost of the first blockade, and just as they began to attack the second, the reinforcements sent by the patrol on the first blockade almost attached them to the two blockades.
Seeing that there was no hope of breaking through, the elves immediately reflexively retreated into a forest in the encirclement before they were blocked.
After chasing the fishmen for a while, they were killed and wounded by a row of "broadswords" and retreated back to the defense line of the encirclement.
Jenny, who received the news, immediately gave the order, and after dawn, the various units began to steadily accelerate the contraction of the encirclement from east to west and from north to south.
In the evening, the fish-people formed a thick encirclement in the east, west, and north of the woods where the elves were last seen, and established a solid defensive line.
Before going to bed that night, many fishmen were discussing how to wipe out the elves in the woods in one fell swoop during the day tomorrow.
It was at this time that Charles, who was already outside the encirclement, received the final order for the operation.
At the same time, there was also a report on the situation of the enemy.
Through a series of actions commanded by George, most of the merfolk forces in the south of Wutong City have been mobilized to the west.
The logistics base in the east-central part of the country was briefly empty, and reinforcements from the sea were expected to arrive after dawn.
As a result, the logistics base, which was originally a horn and could support each other with the fish-man mountain warfare training camp in the southeastern woodland, lost the ability to support to the east.
At this time, Charles knew what the Sycamore City Command meant by the phrase "I want it all", and they did not intend to spare any of the enemy.
Charles, who received the order, stretched his waist, moved his body, which had been a little stiff for a few days, and then left the cellar with teleportation.
Next, he needs to rush to the back of a fish-man stronghold in the northeast in a few hours, and solve the stronghold as quickly as possible to meet the raid on the logistics base.
The elves built a number of roads on land, which the Fishmen used and fortified after they captured the buffer zone.
The stronghold that Charles was dealing with tonight was located on a hill beside a north-south road, and it controlled the passage that could be used by both sides to attack.
The hill on which the stronghold was located was more than twenty meters high, with a "turret" to the north and a camp to the south, surrounded by a ditch and a thorn fence. There are usually about 50 fish-men stationed here, but recently the stronghold has been strengthened, and 50 fish-men have been reinforced from the rear.
Since the encirclement has reached the west, this stronghold is now mainly to prevent the elves in the north from breaking through the defense line to meet the elves in the encirclement, and then ignoring the blockade in the south.
When the appointed time came, as red fireballs rose from west to east, all the strongholds of the fishmen in the south of Wutong City were attacked by the elves.
Either a patrol was ambushed, or a sentry standing guard on top of the turret was killed by arrows from the darkness.
For a time, the entire line of defense was red.
The alarm raised by the patrol on the outskirts alarmed the entire stronghold, and some of the fishmen ran from the camp into the "turret", while others lined up in the open space outside the building to meet the enemy.
Charles took advantage of this opportunity and used "shadow stealth" to come to a short distance to the south of the turret.
Now the fish-people's attention is focused on the north side, which makes Charles's infiltration much easier.
According to the plan, in a few minutes the elves will be attacked, and his mission is to create a big movement to attract the enemy's attention and disrupt the enemy's deployment.
He looked at the turret several stories high in front of him, and then at the fishman who was throwing illumination to the north on the roof of the turret, and decided that it was it.
At this point, the gate to the south of the turret was closed, and in order to prevent the elves from breaking in, the gate was built extremely sturdy and protected by magic.
On the turret, the fish-man who had just learned to shoot an arrow was crouching behind the shooting port with a bow and arrow, nervously observing the pitch-black field outside.
Charles crept under the turret and hid in the shadows, thinking about how to make it useless for a short time.
The easiest thing to do is to bang with an EX curry stick, but the golden light and the remaining traces will surely make the demons think that Artoria is doing something. It wouldn't be fun for the demon to think that Artoria was here, and if he was someone, he would be surrounded and suppressed as Artoria.
The use of a large "conscience" was also denied, as it used a trigger fuse and was not suitable for use as an explosive bag.
Rummaging through the inventory in the storage ring, Charles decided to give the magic scroll a try.
